Among the early takeaways from the first two months of this AHL season is the fact you can never count out the Manchester Monarchs. With the cards stacked against them, they have consistently found ways to win.

Dustin Penner hadn’t scored two goals in the same game since February 2011, back when he was still a member of the Edmonton Oilers. He’s now done it twice in less than a week. Following up on his two goal performance for the Ducks last Saturday, Penner netted another pair on Friday in a 5-2 […]
